Module One introduces us to the term and concept of Child Criminal Exploitation (CCE) and those agencies which are involved in dealing with CCE when it is discovered. This module will also discuss a Serious Case Review (SCR) and its importance.

In this module, we will focus on the classroom as a logical place to start when it comes to promoting reading. We will consider various reading models and strategies to develop a passion for reading for pleasure and the importance of the teacher as a role model.

Module Three covers those elements of society which carry out much of child criminal exploitation. It also discusses situations which breed vulnerability to CCE and how it can be carried out.

Module Four examines those children who might be at the greatest risk of criminal exploitation, along with some common signs to help staff recognise the signs that CCE might be taking place.

In this final module, we will give an overview of the support that is available to victims of CCE and will signpost to important resources for risk assessment and awareness of child criminal exploitation.
